“In one day?” Asmodeus frowned, it sounded too good to be true. “Didn’t you just say that it would be difficult? We need to be even luckier than Greed to pull that off.”

“Listen, we can save time and reduce the casualties with this method.” Theodore turned towards Rhys. “I’ll have him lead a small army to attack the front as a distraction, then your group will attack on the side once Rhys drags them out from behind the city walls.”

Asmodeus didn’t say anything for a moment as her gaze averted elsewhere as she thought about it. Eventually, she hummed in acknowledgement. “That city only has a single wall while the back is protected by a tall mountain…I guess that is possible.”

“As for me,” Theodore paused for a second. “I plan to go in from the back, it should be no problem to sneak in when you guys are distracting the others.”

“You’re going to climb that mountain?” Asmodeus tilted her head. “It’s about half as tall as the human world’s Everest, it would be impossible to scale it in less than a day, let alone a month.”

“Oh I’m not going to climb it.” Theodore shook his head as a light smile crept up his lips, he opened his attribute window and brought up the information on his Unique Magic: Demon Arts.

He expanded the list of spells and looked for a specific one he’d once seen while absent-mindedly looking at his status window; it only took him a few seconds to find what he wanted. “Wouldn’t it be easier to just teleport in?”

Asmodeus raised her eyebrows, surprised by Theodore’s words. “Can you teleport that far?”

“It’s possible with my spell, yes.” He nodded as he did some calculations in his head, the mountain should be about four thousand meters tall, and since he needed to see where he wanted to go first, teleporting to the top would be the best if he wanted to pull this off. “Just buy me around an hour, if things go our way, we should be able to win in only a single day.”
